he's headed to Hungary for nine days for a church planting conference. I have a list of things to do while he is gone:1. tame the craziness in the boys room
2. tame the craziness in our room
(that's a short list you say? ha! you haven't seen the craziness! it's in the same family as this craziness - -
which has, since this picture was taken, been put back into order, thank you very much)besides, whenever Joshua goes away I tend to get this insane notion that I'll be able to get more stuff done than usual, and then he actually leaves and I realize:
1. he helps me a ton with the kids and house, and when he's not around, I don't have more time and energy, I have less time and energy!
and
2. really cool people (like our Christian community, and my friend Ana) know that I will be home without Joshua and so they make a huge effort to get together with me so that I don't get lonely. so I really don't have time to get stuff done; it's awesome. I love it. but I just have to keep the list short, you know?

I know what you mean, I always think I won't have to sleep when Papi is gone and I can scale domestic mountains-keep hugging the youngins and reading to 'um..
Last night Kathy K. and Becca H. came to drop off Goose the dog, because they are going to the very same conference! But we said good bye without any smooching or, er...squeezing.
